SETTING FOR DIAMONDS AND THE LIKE.

SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 506,268, dated October 10, 1893.

Application filed October 8, 1892. Serial No. 448,184. (No model.) Patented in England October 1, 1892, No. 17,499 in France October 1, 1892, No. 224,680; in BelgiumOctober l, 1892, No. 101,573, and in Austria-Hungary April 20, 1893, No. 2,593

and No. 66,390.

To all whom it may concern: 7

Be it known that I, NUTA MANAS SEIDLITZ, a subject of the Czar of Russia, residing at Baarn, a village of the Kingdom of Netherlands, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Settings for Diamonds, &c., (for which invention the following Letters Patent have been granted to me: in Austria-Hungary April 20, 1893, No. 2,593 and No. 66,390; in Belgium October 1, 1892, No. 101,573; in France October 1, 1892, No. 224,680, and in Great Britain October 1, 1892, No. 17,499,) of which the following is a specifica tion.

This invention refers to a new or improved setting or fixing especially adapted for fas-' tening or securing ornamental stones, pearls, and the like upon lace, fabric, orother materials, such for example as articles of ladies dress, thereby rendering the use of a needle unnecessary for such purpose.

According to my invention I provide pins standing out at the back of the setting, such pins being passed through the fabrics or materials which are to be decorated with the ornamental stones, and then the pins are bent together or so bent that their points meet each other and hold the threads of the matepart of a design to be fastened upon lace fabrics and the like, showing the manner in which the small ornamental stones or pearls, &c., can be fastened to an article of toilet for the purpose of its decoration.

The setting a. consisting of suitable material, such as silver, forms a small cup, the upper edge of which has a border round it corresponding in size or shape with the stone 1) to be inserted. Upon the smooth back surface of the setting are several (preferably two) pins 0, which may be, upon the stamping of the setting, pressed out of the same material, and stand out in about a perpendicular direction from the back surface of the setting. The pins after being stuck through the material are bent round or bent together into a sort of eyelet inthe manner shown in Fig. 3, in order,without anything further, to fasten or embrace them firmlyv and durably to the material. The length of the pins should be varied inaccordance with the thickness of the material to be decorated. in Fig. 4 the ornamental stones are distinguished by a small circle. It is obvious that this mode of fastening the setting may be generally employed, and is not merely applicable to articles of ladies dress. Whether the production of the setting is efiected by stamping or in any other manner is a matter of indifierence, the distinguishing characteristic of the setting being that it is formed after the manner of a cup, and together with the pins, consists only of one piece.

Having thus described my invention, what I'claim-as new, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is-

A setting for small ornamental stones,

pearls, and the like, and for facilitating and securely fastening the same upon ladies dresses to ornament the same, consisting of a small cup-shaped setting provided at its back with projecting pins or prongs adapted to be passed through the material of the dresses and to be bent over onto the back of the material so as to securely fasten and lock the setting to the dress, substantially as described. In testimony whereof I have signed my name to this specification in the presence of two subscribing witnesses.
